This Fist. This Fist, #11

THIS FIST, the third short story collection from Matthew Atkinson, features ten face-punching stories that will rattle your perception of the world around you. Descend into a ring of savagery, satire, and sin full of action-packed skull-crushers like the high-flying "Gladiator Flight, " the party-crashing "Dumbbell Step-Up, " and the rough-sailing "A Steamer in the River." No one is spared from the absurd assault of THIS FIST- neither kids ("Midnight Mow"), nor, uh, fantasy people ("Atrous Orb II"), nor nerdy women ("My Best Ideas"), nor the truly unfortunate ("Dreamtide").
THIS FIST punches straight through RPG-like fantasy ("Errand of Vermin"), classic-style SF ("Hyper Offense") and grounded college-core litfic ("Everything I Touch Gets Ruined"), too. Access to the ultimate power is literally at hand. Raise it up, trust it, and direct it against your enemies, even if it looks a little silly- that's how you use THIS FIST.
